It's beginning to look at lot like Christmas...

Yes, from the minute Thanksgiving is over, all I can think about it Christmas! I'll admit that the Christmas music has been playing in our house since the week BEFORE Thanksgiving this year. It's by far my favorite time of year and I can't wait to celebrate with the girls this year. So, to add to my excitement, when we woke this morning it was snowing! The girls were absolutely fascinated watching the first snow of the season and looked out the windows all morning...

But, I suppose before getting too excited about Christmas, I should post our pictures of Thanksgiving. We started our morning with an annual tradition...watching Macy's own parade on TV!

And here's the star of the show herself, watching the parade that is just for her...
The girls got dressed in their Thanksgiving best and continued to watch festive TV shows, while we cooked and prepped for the big dinner to come!
With a little creative planning we were able to get the table set for 12 and it looked fabulous!
Macy enjoyed trying on Grammy's pretty earrings
And Daddy took the turkey outside to put into the fryer, while Grandpa Chuck stood back prepared for disaster (fire extinguisher in hand!)...
However, there was no need to panic, because the turkey frying went off without a hitch and turned out wonderfully...
Then the guests started arriving and getting excited for our feast...
And the food turned out wonderfully...


All in all, it was a perfect Thanksgiving! We had a massive amount of food and we are still eating leftovers in this household! But, most of all, I'm happy that the day marked the official beginning of the Christmas season!
Oh and one last picture, because it's VERY cute...a sisterly hug...their new favorite thing to do!
